History says the Cardinals will lose to Falcons in Week 15

The Week 15 matchup between the Arizona Cardinals and Atlanta Falcons is not a premier matchup. It is a game between two teams struggling mightily. Atlanta has lost five straight games and has only a 4-9 record. Arizona is 3-10 and has the worst offense in football.

The Falcons are favored and with reason. Based on the history of the two teams, the Cardinals can’t win.

Why?

The last 10 times the two teams have faced one another has resulted in the home team winning the game.

And, with the game being played in Atlanta, the Cardinals have not won there since 1994 — 24 years ago.

Unfortunately for the Cardinals, five of the last six contests between the two teams have been in Atlanta, meaning the Cardinals have lost five of their last six games against the Falcons.

Overall, the Cardinals hold a 15-14 advantage all-time against the Falcons, but they are 6-12 on the road. The Falcons are 9.5-point favorites this weekend.
